Doppelganger Wizard/Swordmage->Bloodmage->Archmage. Was a self-taught spellcasting prodigy, and dedicated much of his thought to the philosophical implications of every spell, every Arcane formula, every facet of the Universe. Mentally unstable, but with an incredible depth of philosophical wisdom. Smiles only out of spite and laughs only as an act of defiance. Enjoys giving himself the appearance of having abnormal or unsettling eyes. Has numerous idiosyncrasies, including, but not limited to: sitting perched on the balls of his feet, disdains using mundane means for any task that magic can dupilcate, prefers to use his Cantrips to interact (Lifting items with Mage Hand, Speaking through Ghost Sound, and Prestidigitation for other various effects), and speaking exclusively in the third person of himself.

Unfortuantely All I can get out of it is wide eyed swordmage master with near infinite power.

All other posters (like Proin) do is find art. I do that, and also edit it to better suit the request. :D
Also, how come I am the only one who ever bothers to center them? They look so much nicer when centered.

The Genasi Elemental Tempest pic was easy enough to modify.

The Genasi Child pic was easy to convert into an Enraged Fire Genasi pic as well. :D

The Fire Genasi VS Sahuagin pic needed no editing at all for your character description.

ALTERNATIVELY...
This picture used to be an "ice man" holding a greatsword over half of his face (the blade of which reflected his doomed foes).
I mirrored the image (to get a whole symmetrical face) and then changed the color tones from icy blue to flaming red.
It's a shame I didn't save the original to show you. This picture is now unrecognizeable as the original.

:D I find mirroring and color changing are some of the easier things to do with art, though both can be hit or miss with certain pictures. For example, I found a pic of what appears to be an Eladrin wizard with scarring (shown below). I mirrored it twice, creating three different pics--some of which look more realistic than others. I am no good at making art from scratch, but I have become quite adept at editing existing art.

Also, for those of you who didn't click the above link and see the picture of probably the most awesome Hutt slug ever drawn, here is a quote of the thread post the link led to:

SPECIAL TREAT FOR ALL YOU
STAR WARS SAGA GAMEMASTERS!

I am introducing to you a new NPC Star Wars Saga villain for you vicious GMs to torment your players with: The one, the only GRONDO!
(Shown here instead of with the other characters since it isn't a 4th Edition character.)

“The secret to winning a drinking contest? Fill your opponent full of holes!”

Grondo is a truly monstrous site to behold. He resembles a severely scarred slug with a pair of intimidating cybernetic arms ending in military grade weapons. He also has a pair of fusion generators fused to his spinal cord and all manner of metallic hoses and devices brimming from his backside. His scarred visage and his one remaining eye tell whole stories of his tragically violent history.

Grondo is a loathsome creature that hates all life—especially other Hutt slugs. His hatred and violent tendencies stems from his tragic childhood, which was filled with unending abuse and violence (even by Hutt standards). Grondo appears to be a lowly thug incapable of higher thought, but this is merely a façade he puts on to gain an edge in his dealings. When it comes to his employers, Grondo is an extremely loyal soldier, but he has no compunction against lying to, murdering, or stealing from anyone else (including fellow bounty hunters). Even the loyalty to his employers stems more from a desire to continue a steady paying employ than it does from any real moral or ethical beliefs.

As a worm, Grondo’s father sold him to an especially vile Hutt slug to pay off extensive gambling debts. Grondo’s new master, looking to find a new enforcer and to subdue his new slave’s rebellious personality killed two birds with one stone. Grondo was forced to undergo torturous cycles of cybernetic enhancement surgery—replacing his arms with a pair of powerful E-web blasters—crippling him for life. This debilitating change when combined with the routine beatings and abuse by his master and his associates caused Grondo to develop into a most loathsome creature incapable of feeling positive emotions.

During a heated firefight in his master’s cantina Grondo snapped under the pressure and went psychotic—slaughtering every living creature in the cantina—including his master. The murder enraged many of his kin and having earned their enmity Grondo fled his homeworld to avoid the many bounty hunters that were hired shortly after his master’s murder.

Grondo’s next move surprised everyone. He made his way to the heart of the offices of the Bounty Hunter’s Guild, joined up, and promptly slaughtered every bounty hunter who had taken up a contract against him. Since then, he has built up an extremely sinister reputation for accomplishing jobs quickly, efficiently, and messily. Potential employers long ago stopped hiring Grondo for bounties that require live captures or minimal collateral damage. Because of his extreme hatred for his own kind, Grondo never takes up contracts from Hutts. Conversely, he jumps at the chance to take bounties against his own kind and has been known to do so at a discount.

I designed Grondo in the old Revised edition days and later updated him to Saga Edition rules. I spent over a year looking for an appropriate picture for him, but you know what? Finding a cyborg hutt with E-webs for arms is next to impossible! After a full year of searching I was able to find a picture called Mancubus (shown in the sblock below). Originally, I just cropped off the legs and used it as it was. Now that I have some cool new art software though, I was finally able to make Grondo like he was always meant to be: a truly horrendous monstrosity of a hutt slug.

How's about an old, grizzled Half-Elf Warlord whose Inspiring Word consists of him calling the ailing teammate a "Weakling", "Snot-Nosed Kid", "Pathetic B*****d", and other such nasty things to get them riled up so that they can hurt him later. Constantly laments how much better battles were fought in his day.
